I got mine from Nate during the GP, it took awhile but I wasn't in a hurry.

I will add that one thing I have learned while here on the forum is to get answers to all my questions before ordering and paying for a product from a vendor. The vendors don't always have products on hand in stock but usually don't charge you until the item is shipped. Do your research and take nothing for granted.

I also ordered from Nate. I have a problem with his staff taking my $ & not telling me we don't have it in stock. thats not the way you do buss. I own a Texaco station & a repaire shop & you can guess what my people would say if I told them pay me now & I will have your Gas or part sometime.

Sorry but I don't believe anybody anymore about when they'll ship. It's very annoying when people advertise one delivery schedule and then aren't anywhere near it. I'd prefer they underpromise and over-deliver rather than the other way around which seems to be the rule rather than the exception. You can't have a repeat customer until you make them customer. "Back-ordered" and other excuses are now so common place.

I can tell your a little upset with nate about something. Not knowing the whole story here...I will add to it, Nate is a stand-up guy. Myself and others here have done tons of buisness with him, as well as many others that are vendors and friends here.
I know not all transactions go smooth, some poor by either side of the deal. But...Nate is a good guy, and generally makes things right.
